[Jukebox-list] Wurlitzer 2800 selection problems

[Ssg Rich Myers]

John,

There are others here with far more knowledge that I do,  but I also am working on a 2800 and I think the issue with the record being raised to play them immediately rejecting is your transfer switch is not being released when the main cam rotates 180 degrees and pressure is released from the transfer switch.  If you look at the back of the juke,  the transfer switch is near the middle back.  When released the screw that holds it to the left pulls off and being spring loaded will snap the leaf switches to the right.  Make sure that is happening.

Your selector issue is similar to the one I just corrected on my 2710. Is it happening on every selection,  or a certain number or letter?  The 'sliders' that the keys are connected have little tabs that make the connections on the selector board and may be bent or broken...or..the selector may need a good cleaning....

Jim Alexander and anyone else...feel free to correct me.

Rich

Hello Have made progress on the 2800 but still have two problems. If you trip a selection the mechanism travels
 to the pin and resets it but when the record is raised to play it returns to the carousel without playing. My other
 problem is when making a selection with the letter and number buttons, the buttons lock in you can here the plate
 the solenoids are on moving and the buttons then release as they should but no solenoid operates to raise a selection pin.
Thanks for any help. John
